Turner will make fans pay for most UCL games

In case you've forgotten, this is the last season Fox Sports will carry the UEFA Champions League. Beginning next season, Turner holds the rights and has plans to launch a new OTT sports platform on
which fans will have to pay to watch most of the games.

In 2016-17, Fox Sports sub-licensed UEFA rights with ESPN, allowing fans with access to the specific Fox Sports or ESPN networks to
watch every Champions League game and dozens of Europa League games.

Turner will air matches on truTV as well as its national networks, TBS and TNT, but most games will air on its OTT
sports platform. Bleacher Report will also serve as a portal to the OTT service and the live UEFA matches offered.

All other matches will be available live through Turner’s new OTT sports
